Hi George
Thanks for the info. I know about this but the bags are conventional
camera bag style. What I want is a pelican you can wear on your back.
Thanks also for the info on the 24/2 - bummer! You seem to be doing
exactly what I have been thinking of. Remember I mentioned ditching the
35mm f2 for a 28mm f2?
Well, here is my plan - goodby 24mm f2 and 35mm f2 and hello 21mm f3.5,
28mm f2 and 35-80mm f2.8.
I think I have a 35-80mm lined up but it will be a couple of months before
I can get my hands on it.
Now how the hell am I going to get a good price on the 24mm f2 now Gary
has dropped his bomb shell?
